FLAVOR-RITE BEANS 
Dwarf or Bush Green-Podded 
Culture. Beans grow well in any good garden 
soil. Usually the first planting can be made the 
last week in April, followed by successive plantings 
about two weeks apart until August 15. Open a 
drill 2 inches deep and drop the Beans 1 inch apart 
and cover. When well up, draw the soil up against 
the plants and cultivate frequently. Do not culti- 
vate them when the dew is on the plants, as this 
frequently causes rust. One pound of seed is suffi- 
cient for 50 feet of drill.

Pole Lima Beans 
Where poles can be secured, these Beans are 
more productive than the Bush varieties. Set poles

with it a liberal supply of fertilizer or well-rotted 
manure. Do not plant until the ground is warm, 
One pound will plant 50 poles.

Edible Soy Beans Are Delicious 
Lima Beans, Dwarf or Bush 
Bush Limas are nearly 2 weeks earlier than Pole 
Limas. The seed is quite tender, and will rot while 
the ground is cold or wet, so do not plant before 
the ground is warm. For very best results, how- 
ever, the seed can be started in pots in a hotbed 
er in the greenhouse and the plants set out when 
the weather is settled. Plant in rows 3 feet apart 
and from 4 to 6 inches apart in the row, always 
edgewise, with the eye down. 
One pound will plant a row 50 feet long.
